With only five ingredients I can put a beautiful meal on the table for family or guests in very little time. I use store-bought pesto, which makes preparation quick and easy. This is a one-skillet dish, and it's also the only way I can get my 3-year-old son to eat asparagus. Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces |
1 cup heavy whipping cream |
1/2 cup prepared pesto |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
hot cooked couscous |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute chicken in oil until no longer pink. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, saute asparagus until crisp-tender. Stir in the cream, pesto and pepper until blended. Return chicken to the pan; heat through. Serve with couscous. Yield: 4 servings.
